Wendy tells me the same thing. But she is just as into her bike as me if not more so. We are headed to Thunder in the Valley in Johnstown and it was her idea.

My wife thinks I spend too much time on my local 4x site. She rolled her eyes when I joined this one.

Tell her to look at your post count. You're nowhere NEAR obsessed. Look around. Dog's been here about a year and he's about to pass us all. THAT'S OBSESSED!

Just know that there is a difference between addiction and obsession. Both can be either good or bad. Just reassure her that this is family and nothing to worry about.

My wife says im obsessed with the site, the bike, riding everyday, working on it everyday, etc...etc..etc. I dont got time to mow the lawn cause im going back and forth with oldroadie about jetting, then rejetting, then road test, then, sealing up my pipes, then road test, then fixing the speedo, then road test, then adding another coat of paint to whatever, then road test

At least Im not hanging out at the bar every night getting wasted...ahha
